Oral Mucosa [Oral and Dental Sciences] Miss H Rogers GDC ILOs 1.1.5 Describe relevant and appropriate dental, oral, craniofacial and general anatomy and explain their applica;on to pa;ent management 1.1.6 Describe relevant and appropriate physiology and explain its applica;on to pa;ent management Related topics Epithelium Connec;ve Tissue Intra-oral examina;on 3 Aim To gain an overview of the structure and func;on of the oral mucosa Learning Outcomes By the end of this lecture you should be able to: 1.Describe the diEerent types of mucosa and their histopathology in health 2.Iden;fy the areas of the oral cavity each type of mucosa is associated with 3.Iden;fy changes in the appearance of the oral mucosa 4 lines oral mucous membrane that Cavity. What is it? What do you understand by the term oral mucosa? Barrier from infections protecting underly tissues - and organs (mechanical forces. , · Barrier protects from Surface abrasions Saliva from minor ·. · saliva grands-lubrication · Helps reduce trauma Sensory ↑ -receptors : · temperature pain · touch protective · reflexes ; swallowing or gagging. 6 Stratified Squamous epithelium. A Structure Connective tissue - 7 Have a look at your mouth in the mirror: What does the mucosa look like? How would you describe it- smooth/rough, pink/red, Nrm/soO? Does the appearance change depending on the area? 8 ClassiAcaBon Based on their histological features, the oral mucosa can be divided into three main types: Lining mucosa Mas;catory mucosa Specialised mucosa Lining Mucosa 9 1 0 The structures covered by lining mucosa include: Can you iden;fy these areas in your own mouth? How would you describe the appearance of these areas? 1 1 In health, the lining mucosa’s clinical appearance generally - has: A soOer surface texture A moist surface An ability to be stretched and compressed (ac;ng like a cushion for the underlying structures) - - 1 2 · fordyce spots - normed appearance elevations on oral mucosa surface. - small yellowish ↑ Sebum from misplaced deposits of caused by - sebaceous glands Do not ↳ found in need further submucosa. investigation. 1 3 Histology Think back to what you’ve learnt on epithelium… Can you remember the three types stra;Ned squamous epithelium? Out of these three, and based on what you could see, which do you think is most associated with the lining mucosa? Why? 1 4 oral cavity. -most common in Answer: NonkeraBnised stratified Squamous fewer and Large layer of · less pronounced submucosa. - and refe ridges allows for Connective tissue & compression papille. of underlying · more elastic. tissues fibres & ↳ aids with speech + swallowing. - 1 5 AddiBonal features Lining mucosa. Surgical incisions in these areas oOen requires sutures Local anaesthe;c injec;ons are easier in these areas with less discomfort. Infec;on can spread rapidly Why do you think these may be? MasBcatory Mucosa 16 1 7 The structures covered by mas;catory mucosa include: Can you iden;fy these areas in your own mouth? How would you describe the appearance of these areas? - Keratinized 1 8 In health, the mas;catory mucosa’s clinical appearance generally has: Rubbery surface texture Resiliency (Nrm base) no movement 1 rete ridges 9 more Histology - ↳ gives mucosa a firmer base · Bore unoulies SUBMUCOSA. Which do you think is most associated with the mas;catory mucosa, thin or not very S 3 nonkera;nised or kera;nised epithelium? Why? present - not present in Aids with function attached gingiva. for hard surfaces Seating , Speaking. least common Hard palate attached- tongue part of : · + , Dorsum of gingiva attache gingiva. 2 0 Addi;onal features masticatory > - mucosa. Sutures are rarely needed in these areas following surgical procedures Local anaesthe;c injec;ons are more di\cult and cause more discomfort Swellings in these ;ssues caused by infec;ons cause greater discomfort Why do you think these may be? Harder surface underlined by bone. Specialised Mucosa 21 2 2 The structures associated with specialised mucosa include: Bumps on dorsal and lingual surfaces of tongue. 2 3 Which do you think is most associated with the specialised mucosa, nonkera;nised or kera;nised epithelium? Why? either of or tho parce or cell turnover times - Junctional epithelium-4-6 days - Hard 24 palate days. - nonkeratinized buccal mucosa turns over faster times than Keratinized attacked gingiva. Variations Changes in appearance: Hyperkera1nisa1on 24 2 5 Nonkera(nised epithelium may transform into a kera(nising type in response to fric(onal or chemical trauma. It has therefore become- hyperkera1nised. Histologically the (ssue will resemble orthokera(nised epithelium with a kera(n and granular layer Can be reversible but takes time. can also occur in Keratinized epitheliom. 2 6 Hard palate 1.
